Meet the Company

Chiara Fumanti

Eva
Chiara Fumanti - Eva Cofounder of Stage Leftovers, Chiara trained in Musical Theatre, before achieving an MA in Creative Writing in 2022. Previous credits include, among others, Sweeney Todd (Edinburgh Fringe), Pinocchio (UK & Ireland tour) & The King’s secret (London tour). Writing-wise, she has co-authored and co-edited the anthology High Salvage, as well as co-writing (in 4 days!) the rehearsed reading Mad:. Chiara is ecstatic to be making her playwriting and producing debut with The Extraordinary Life of a Rat Racer.

Andrea Guerini

Arthur
Andrea Guerini - Arthur A proud Italian, trained in Rome, not a gladiator, yet. Andrea has performed and studied around the globe, including Belgium, Spain, Hungary, Norway, USA and Canada, where he won the award for “Best Supporting Actor” at Liverpool International Theatre Festival in 2024. Co-founder of Stage Leftovers, he is thrilled to be making his directing debut with The Extraordinary Life of a Rat Racer.

Bob

Yellow balloon/Gym guy
Bob - Yellow balloon/Gym guy Here to get his veins sliced. No previous experience (that he knows of) of being an intrusive thought victim. Your regular gym rat, Bob is thrilled to be making his professional debut and is ready to show off his iron butt cheeks!

Sharon

Purple Balloon/Crafty Lady
Sharon - Purple Balloon/Crafty Lady Loves accessories, crotchet, and cats. The earrings that are going to be ripped off her lobes are her favourite, but she is happy to sacrifice them for the good of the play! The Extraordinary Life of a Rat Racer is Sharon's first (and probably last) professional appearance.

Loveface

Balloon in love
Loveface - Balloon in love Loveface is so incredibly excited to go on her date! A bit confused on why she's now part of this production. Nonetheless, thrilled to be here!

Doesn't have a name

Guy on tube
Doesn't have a name - Guy on tube He doesn't know why he's here. He just happened to nearly miss his stop. He's now slashed in half.
